| Description of the problem | On multiple occasions the transmission has come out of gear between shifts and remained out of gear for extended periods of time. The most notable scenario is when pulling a 7500 pound load while descending down a mountain. This has resulted in loss of braking power and overall control of the truck and trailer. This has created an unsafe environment for myself and my family while hauling our travel trailer. The 10 speed transmission is notorious for such behavior and ford refuses to acknowledge this. I have made multiple attempts at bringing it in for service at multiple dealerships. There is no known fix for this problem. Please see other similar issues reported: https://www. Classaction.
